Homeplace Plantation is on the National Historic register and is a designated National historic landmark built between 1787-1791. The first floor is built out of stuccoed brick along with the pillars that support the second level of the gallery. The upper gallery is built out of cypress, as are the second-floor walls, floors, and ceilings. The timbers used in the walls have been chinked with clay, Spanish moss and horse hair. This technique is actually called bousillage, which was commonly used by French colonial settlers. The roof was ripped off after Hurricane Ida last year sadly and the owners have been slowly trying too make repairs. Full history in my pinned comment down below! This was one of my favorite houses I’ve ever filmed, ever since reading Ghosts Along the Mississippi I’ve always wanted to document an old place like this. Just glad I was able too film this amazing piece of architectural history. You can find old pictures of this place online as well on Google!
Thank you very much for watching and I really hope you enjoy!
